Governance & Integrity

Operating With Integrity

The TJX Companies, Inc. is the leading off-price retailer of apparel and home fashions worldwide, operating more than 5,200 stores in ten countries1 spanning three continents. As an off-price leader and a Fortune 100 company, we recognize that our stakeholders, including Associates, customers, communities, vendors, and shareholders, expect our business dealings and interactions to be grounded in our long-held core values of honesty, integrity, and treating others with dignity and respect.

We hold ourselves to high ethical standards, as outlined in the TJX Global Code of Conduct (PDF), which sets our expectations for how Associates conduct business, including their interactions with each other, our customers, and other stakeholders. Likewise, our Vendor Code of Conduct (PDF) sets our expectations of the merchandise vendors with whom we do business. As part of our governance practices, we also maintain a comprehensive set of corporate governance policies and materials designed to promote honest and ethical conduct across the business.
